In addition to their daughter, Moore and Goldsmith, 39, are also parents to two boys: 3-year-old August “Gus” and Oscar “Ozzie,” who is almost 2.
In late May, Moore announced her third pregnancy on Instagram in a joint post with Goldsmith, the lead singer of Dawes.
“Sometimes life imitates art,” she wrote in the caption of a post in which their two sons wore T-shirts that read “Big” and “Middle” Sibling.
“The third of our own Big Three is coming,” she added. “I can’t wait for these boys to have a little sister.”
The parents welcomed their first child in February 2021 and their second in October 2023.
Shortly after Goldsmith spoke glowingly about Moore in his Mother’s Day tribute, they announced they would soon be welcoming a new member of the family.
“Happy Mother’s Day to my amazing wife,” he wrote on Instagram.
“It’s the hardest job there is, and you’re the best at it. And thanks for booking all the doctor and dentist appointments. I love you.”
